Former Supreme Court clerk and Republican primary candidate Ted Cruz says the American people should decide who fills the late Justice Antonin Scalia's seat by voting in the next presidential election, and warned that he would filibuster any attempt to bring up his anticipated nominee.
I will oppose any attempt by the Democrats to deny the American people their say, he wrote in a Monday morning Wall Street Journal op-ed. There should be no hearing on any nomination that President Obama makes, and if any confirmation vote is attempted, I will filibuster it.
So far there seems to be little risk of a filibuster, as Senate Republicans have said they won't allow a hearing on Obama's nomination, much less a vote. Like other Republicans, Cruz said the next president should decide the fate of the Supreme Court, which means giving people a chance to consider how each party might fill Scalia's seat.
